#83. Here's why commodities are an overrated investment.
Commodities probably don't help your portfolio the way you think they do.
In this episode, Trishul and Aaron discuss how commodities may fit into an asset allocation. In theory, gold, oil, and even corn can be a store of value and provide opportunities for speculation. And with futures and the magic of margin leverage, it's possible to amplify returns. Further, according to asset allocation research, securities with low correlations and positive expectations can even improve overall risk-adjusted returns. Nevertheless, can we safely assume that commodities will generate positive inflation-adjusted returns in the future?
